Peachjar | The Importance of Partnership

Expanding Access for the Next Generation

Research shows that afterschool programs provide positive and safe development opportunities for children—leading to increased attendance, engagement, and better grades. Schools are uniquely positioned to create a positive culture around after school programs - whether part of a district’s existing curriculum or additional programming.

We believe in facilitating partnerships between districts and communities to ensure that all children can thrive. This means expanding access nationwide so that today’s youth have the same opportunities and information no matter where they live.

Life Changing Resources

Go beyond afterschool sports and tutoring and provide parents and families resources and programs for health and emotional development. These organizations are critical to student success as they help support academic and emotional skills, promote important life lessons, and improve lives. Some of these resources are life-saving mental health, suicide prevention, and substance misuse programs.
